This could be a double definition.

'drinks' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.

Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for shorts that I've seen before include "Garment" , "Summer trousers" , "Reduced trousers" , "Boxers" , "Item of clothing; drinks of spirit" .)
